Junmai Ginjo
It is hard to tell from the picture, but this sake comes in a plastic bottle. It looks suspiciously like a bottle of sake, but I was tempted to pick it up because it was made by the Shinzawa Brewery, which is a cash cow.
The PET bottle is coated to resist deterioration of the contents, and the four-pack capacity shows their dedication.
The flavor is light and clean with little assertiveness, leaving behind a sweetness and umami that disappears softly, making it a perfect food sake that goes well with just about anything.
In short, it is just like the usual Junmai Ginjo from the Shinzawa Brewery, which is why I was surprised that the quality of the sake was not affected even in PET bottles.
Light! Easy to open and close the stopper! It won't break even if you bump it! Above all, it is a container that makes a lazy person like me, whose room is covered with sake bottles whenever I'm not careful, very happy.
It seems to have been on the market for several years and has been re-released several times, but this is the first time I've seen it. I hope it will spread more widely.
